Leicester are reportedly considering a bid for Ozan Kabak after the defender's loan spell at Liverpool.
A bid of £12.8million will be enough to tempt Schalke into selling the 21-year-old, this is according to Sport1.
A new centre-back could be on the cards at King Power Stadium following Wes Morgan’s retirement at the end of last season.
Kabak’s signature has already begun prior to the summer window transfer with Leicester named as the frontrunner for the 21-year-old.
Lille midfielder Boubakary Soumare followed striker Patson Daka through the door earlier this month.
Schalke, relegated from the Bundesliga after a nightmare 2020-21 campaign, has confirmed enquiries for Kabak.
Rouven Schroder the Sporting director stated that no official bid has arrived yet, with the Turkey international given extra time off amid the interest.
"We have agreed that he won’t start training with us this week.
"He will keep himself fit with his personal coaching team and he can continue trying to sort out his future." Schroder told the Schalke website.
Liverpool paid a £1m fee to take Kabak on loan in January amid injuries to Joel Matip, Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk.
Yet, after 13 appearances, he was sent back to Germany as the club turned down a pre-agreed £17m purchase option.
